All of these plans are terrible so I'll post mine.

1 Have no state having it's primary as the same day as any other place. This is to stop super tuesday style bunching. Basically 50 primaries scattered over from January to June.
2 Have the caucuses held on a different day from the primaries.
3 Have the order be rotating and random.

1 I was thinking having both sets of primaries be on the same day.

2 Threaten to take away transportation funding and states will jump through hoops for you. Wink

3 It's a reference to the discworld novels by Terr Prachett. The Patrician of Ankh-Morpok is named this.

1 My plan presumed both parties held their primaries on the same day for the reasons you stated.

2 Congratulations. You win the prize which is a discount on a bridge located in San Francisco.
